The Swedish government said on Tuesday it would remove ID checks on journeys from Denmark into Sweden but sharpen other controls once travellers reach its border. "We need control at Sweden's borders in order to maintain security," the government said in a statement. "We need to compensate for the removal of ID controls with a permanent strengthening of border controls." Measures to boost controls would include surveillance cameras and x-raying vehicles passing over the border, the government said.
